Episode 001: How To Become A Master Connector With Jayson Gaignard From MasterMind Talks

I love discussing how we can all better ourselves by becoming improving our connecting skills. This was a phenomenal episode. Jayson shares that the best way to connect with others is to first look to help them. I think it is one of most life-changing and important skills we can master.

“To me, at the end of the day, it’s not how many friends you can count, it’s how many friends you can count on.” – Jayson Gaignard

That’s just one reason I had an awesome time interviewing today’s guest on The Learning Leader Show.

Did you enjoy the podcast?

I love discussing how we can all better ourselves at connecting with others through helping them. Jayson has mastered this vital skill. I loved this episode. Who do you know that needs to hear this? Send them to The Learning Leader Show!

Building connections and building relationships are how you bring real value to the world around you.

Jayson Gaignard is a super-connector.

Broke and $250,000 in debt, Jayson thought about an idea that nobody else was doing after getting a free ticket to hear Seth Godin speak, connecting entrepreneurs over an intimate dinner.

He paid for this himself by going even further into debt with no expectations of ever making money on these. Mastermind Dinners launched and Jayson’s new venture was off and running. Hear Jayson discuss how he scraped together $84,000 in order to pay for Tim Ferriss to speak at his first event. Incredible!

Entrepreneurship often takes an unyielding belief in yourself, and Jayson definitely believes.

Listen today to hear the story of someone who bet everything he had on an idea.

Leaders are learners. The best leaders never stop working to make themselves better.
